Aditya Tare out of Ranji Trophy semis; UP add Mohsin Khan | Cricket News – Times of India

MUMBAI: In a blow to Mumbai ahead of their Ranji Trophy semifinal against Uttar Pradesh from June 14 at the Just Cricket Academy in Bangalore, former captain and wicketkeeper Aditya Tare has been ruled out of the match due to a fracture in the middle finger of his left hand. The 34-year-old has been replaced by Prasad Pawar, who made his debut for Mumbai during the Vijay Hazare Trophy earlier this season, in the squad. Tare’s absence, though, means that Hardik Tamore is set to get his spot in the XI. Tare injured his finger while going for a catch down the leg side off pacer Tushar Deshpande. The experienced glovesman had scored 1 & 57 in Mumbai’s 725-run quarterfinal against Uttarakhand. Overall, Tare has played 80 first-class matches, and scored 4523 runs@36.77, with nine hundreds...

Debutants impressed, powerhouses struggled in expanded IPL | Cricket News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: As fireworks lit up the Ahmedabad night sky and confetti rained on Hardik Pandya and his triumphant Gujarat Titans team mates, another edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) came to a glitzy end on Sunday after two months of breakneck action. More than 100,000 fans thronged the Narendra Modi Stadium where Gujarat capped a fairytale first season by outplaying 2008 champions Rajasthan Royals in a low-scoring final. "This has been a truly memorable season with our fans back in the stadium, celebrating every moment," tweeted Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah. India's struggle to contain the COVID-19 pandemic had forced the organisers to hold the entire 2020 edition of the tournament in the United Arab Emirates, which also hosted the second half o...

IPL 2022: Exclusive – Back your strengths and bowl fast, says Mohsin Khan | Cricket News – Times of India

Although an India cap has eluded him for the moment, expect to hear more of this cricketer from Sambhal in UP who impressed with his skills and poise under pressure. Mohsin has used his height, hit the deck hard, hurried batters and created problems with his angles and slower ones. Some decisive spells have ensured the best Powerplay economy rate (5. 25, minimum 10 overs) of all bowlers this season.

IPL 2022: Rajat Patidar – From unsold player to Lucknow Super Giants slayer | Cricket News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: When Rajat Manohar Patidar came to the crease at No. 3, after Royal Challengers Bangalore lost their captain Faf Du Plessis for a duck, no one would have thought that the 28-year-old from Indore, Madhya Pradesh, had arrived at the crease to script history. Patidar, who was incredibly ignored by the franchises in the IPL 2022 Mega Auction, scored an unbeaten century (112*) and powered the Royal Challengers Bangalore to a massive 207/4 in their 20 overs against Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator. In reply, LSG fell short of the enormous target and lost the battle by 14 runs. The 28-year-old batsman launched an attack from the word go, tonking the LSG bowlers all over the park. He smashed 12 fours and 7 sixes in his 54-ball whirlwind knock. He remained unbeaten on 112. Once ...

IPL 2022, LSG vs RCB: I don’t shy away from bowling in slog overs, says Harshal Patel | Cricket News – Times of India

KOLKATA: Royal Challengers Bangalore seamer Harshal Patel does feel the nerves while bowling in the death overs but says he wants to be in those extreme pressure situations game after game. The 31-year-old, who represents Haryana at the domestic circuit, has been the most improved bowler in the recent past and has cleverly used his variations to get the better of batters in the death overs. Harshal also enhanced his reputation as a 'death overs specialist' in the IPL Eliminator against LSG. "Whether I would be able to deliver or not, I don't really know, I can't say. But I want to be in those situations, there is no doubt about that," Harshal said after inspiring the team to a 14-run win over Lucknow Super Giants on Wednesday.

KOLKATA: Lucknow Super Giants skipper KL Rahul became the first-ever player in the history of Indian Premier League (IPL) to score 600-plus runs in four IPL seasons. Rahul achieved this feat during the Eliminator clash of the ongoing IPL 2022 against Royal Challengers Bangalore on Wednesday here at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

Rajat Patidar: It wasn’t in my control that I wasn’t picked at the auction, says RCB’s Rajat Patidar | Cricket News – Times of India

KOLKATA: Rajat Patidar was ignored at this year's mega Indian Premier League (IPL) auction, only to be picked by Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) as an injury replacement, but the 28-year-old never cared about things which he couldn't really control. On Wednesday, in the IPL Eliminator, Patidar hit a 54-ball 112 not out, which laid the foundation of RCB's 14-run win over Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). RCB restricted LSG to 193/6 after putting up 207/4 on the board, thanks to Patidar's ton. The winners of the Eliminator will now meet Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier 2, which will decide who faces Gujarat Titans in the final. "I was busy after the 2021 IPL playing for my club. I wasn't picked after the 2021 IPL, but that wasn't in my control." On his innings, Patidar said that his ability to m...

IPL 2022: Dropping easy catches never helps, Rajat Patidar made the difference for RCB, says LSG skipper KL Rahul | Cricket News – Times of India

KOLKATA: A dejected Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper KL Rahul blamed sloppy fielding for his team's 14-run defeat at the hands of Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the IPL Eliminator while acknowledging Rajat Patidar's brilliant hundred being the difference between the two teams. The 28-year-old Indore man Patidar scored a 54-ball 112 not out to singlehandedly win the IPL Eliminator for RCB. "I think it's quite obvious - the reasons why we didn't win. We let ourselves down in the field. Dropping easy catches never helps. Difference was obviously Patidar playing such a knock. When someone in the top three scores a hundred, more often the team wins," Rahul said after the match.

IPL 2022: You’ve got to swallow your ego sometimes and hang in there, says Jos Buttler on jittery start against Gujarat Titans | Cricket News – Times of India

KOLKATA: Rajasthan Royals opener Jos Buttler had no qualms in admitting that he struggled to get going initially against Gujarat Titans in the first qualifier, saying sometimes you have to "swallow your ego" and hang in there without panicking. This season's Orange Cap holder Buttler, who now has 718 runs in 15 games, initially failed to time the ball and was 39 off his first 38 balls. But the opener shifted gears in style and smacked another 50 off his next 18 deliveries faced to lift RR's total to a challenging 188/6. "I was determined to hang in there. It was a big game for us and we wanted to make sure to put a big score," Buttler said at the post-match press conference after RR's seven-wicket loss to GT on Tuesday. "Sometimes you got to swallow your ego, if you are finding it hard,...

Will Deepak Hooda, who had fought with Krunal last year, play for Baroda again?

Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) is trying to convince Deepak Hooda to come back and represent Baroda again in the forthcoming domestic season. Hooda had moved to Rajasthan last season after his spat with the Baroda skipper Krunal Pandya during the 2020-21 season. Both have since patched up, and even played for the same IPL team. A BCA official said the association now is trying to convince Hooda to come back to his state. “Whatever has happened, has happened. We are trying to convince Hooda to come back and play for Baroda again. He too has now patched up with Krunal, so there is no reason left for not coming back to Baroda. We had already expressed our interest in him and it will be his decision. We are hoping that he agrees to it,” a BCA official told The Indian Express. Krunal ...

A total of 70 matches were played since March 26 and this year's cricketing extravaganza was no different than its predecessors -- bringing out the highest quality of cricket almost every single evening over the last one and a half months.

At the post-match press conference on Wednesday, Lucknow Super Giants' (LSG) assistant coach Vijay Dahiya cited the possible reason behind the charged-up celebration by the South African opener. "I will speak about Quinton. Sometimes he got runs, sometimes he didn't (in the ongoing IPL).
